THE MARKETS CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 16, I-Taring a large supply of Wheat this morning from Essex an Kent, and there being every probability of foreign importa tions being free for the next quarter, caused the sales to be very heavy, and what little was disposed of was at a reduction of 3s. per quarter from last Monday's prices. 'Fine English Barley fully supports Friday's prices, the quantity at market to-day being small, but there was no demand for Foreign; Oats are is. per quarter cheaper; Beaus are 4s. lower, and very few buyers; Pease are 'is. cheaper; in other articles there is no alteration.—The following are the importations during the last week : English, Foreign.

"The Mitiviito sloop of War sails Ni-morrow for t ngland : she is c:iarged with dispatches front Hudson Lowe, re lantig, it IS understood, to au intercepted cOrrespoadence, which has, discovered the existent. , of a plot, the object of which was the liberation of Buonaparte from this island. I forbear to mention the names currently circulated het e, of those who are said to be implicated in this transaction ; a hanker's house in London, however, :Ind two individualS in England, with others on the Continent, it is rumoured, are concerned. DetectiOn of the plot was producA by the cirenmStance, tt is sail, of many letters, addressed to a p"rson (the name of which nb individual is to he fount here), Vying nncalled for at tlie post-office. Buonaparte is in very good health ; he still, however, abstains from exercise, con- fining himself wholly within d2ors. The reason assigned at Longwood for the departure hence of General Gourgaud, is a quarrel between him and General Montholon. Gourgaud had been - challenged by the latter, but Buonaparte forbidding them to fight, Gourgaud quitted. It is confidently said Buo naparte has recently obtained the sum of 15,0001. in dollars; through What means this weighty loa could have been carried clandestinely to Longwood, is still a matter of surprise. The discorery of the' plot has already brought to light where the whole of Buonaparte's treasure is deposited. Bertrand some time since asserted he could at any time command a million sterling. Of the three Commissioners, one only remains on the island ; those of Russia and Austria are gome to Rio, to take up their abode some time. Buonaparte will not admit eitlker one of them to his presence ; the Austrian Commis sioner, Baron . tke Sturmer, who returned some weeks since to his Court, did not, duririi the long period he remained on the island, once see Buonaparte. " This island is not healthy for a continued residence ; it is for many hours, every day, covered with vapours and dense fags, and it does not yield a sixth part of sufficient vegetable substances for the use of the troops and seamen. The inha bitants are wholly excluded from all means of livelihood ; do ships are allowed to remain here longer than, is absolutely ne cessary; all supplies come from the Cape, but they are very scanty, and what fresh meat is afforded from this channel is wholly engrossed by the troops ; the ships never get a meal of it; and during the last five months they have had only one third bread, no cocoa, and no pease; the deficiency is wholly made op of rice. Disentery, consequently, prevails mach ; and all the vessels have lost many men ; the Mos quito has lost about twenty-three in three months, and the Conqueror has scarcely seamen enough on board to work the ship. But notwithstanding this weak state the squadron has furnished 300 men to assist in' building a new house for Boo naparte, of the most capacious dimensions. The seamen, after the day's work is over, are marched to another part of the island, to be encamped for the night. Every ship fur nishei guard-boats, which row round the island, and, as they approach the various points, are always challenged by the sentinels. A short time since, one of the sloops of war, in working to windward of the island, discovered two men in a cave on the shore; she accordingly sent a boat, and brought off two Yamstock (native) Negroes, who hail been fishing ; and who, it appeared, used to get to the beach from the top of the Cliff by a secret but dangerous path. A new battery was consequently immediwely erected, and it was by this unknown outlet, it is said, that the Great Man was to be carried off. We ate constantly amused with stories of schooners hovering off the island ; the cruisers certainly sometimes see such, but never board them. A 1 ransport from the Cape lately passed one close, lying to, to windward, about 80 miles from the Island, which took no notice of her; she might, however, have been slaying, or looking nut for Spanish or Portuguese Imliamen she was a large long schooner of IR guns, and apparently full of men. The troops here are more healthy than the sea men are ; many casualties, however, occur among the farmer— several sentinels have been lost by falling over the cliffs."— (Hampshire Telegraph.) NEw . JUDGEi.—II is stated that Mr. Sergeant BET and Mr. RICHARpSoN are to be the two new Puisne Judges in the Courts of King's Bench and Common Pleas. Mr. Sergeant COPLEY is to succeed Mr Sergeant BasT as Chief Justice of Chester.—(Sunday Paper.) A Gentleman arrived iq London from Senegal, which place he left on the llth September, brings some intelligeNee respecting the expedition now exploring the intetior of Africa. Mr. ADRIAN PARTARREAU, a native of Senegal, attached to the expedition under Major GRAY, had arrived there tram Gaylam, which• they hail reached after ahont seven weeks' journey from Cayai, with the lo's of Mr. BURTON, late an officer of the Royal Af r i can Corps, and one soldier. They were at the finite of his leaving all well, but in want of provi sinus. The Major and some of his party were to con tinue at Gaylain till the end of the rains. Dr. DOCKHARDT had proceeded for Lego, to prepare for !he embarkation of Major GRAY on the Niger. A supply of provisions had been forwarded to Major GRAY. Where an assemblage of talent and experience is concentrated in one line of practice, a success must futend their application, not to be found elsewhere. This has been evinced in the Esta blishment ot the Medical Board at Charlotte- Blacktriars-roatl, and at Woodstock- House, %Voodstock-street, Oxford -street, where cures are every day perfOrtned in cases which have baffled the skill ot eminent professors, and excited their astonishment.

MENDICh '''OCIEIY. FOR THE SUN. Ma. EDITOR,—The Poor's Rates are now said to ~m ount to 8 millions, which is general . ) , con sidered as the gauge, or measure, of P.,operism or Mendicily ; but such an infi Fence is surely erroneous, when we recollect the sums paid out ot the Poor's Rates tor lave expcnces, !nr parish dinners, fur wasteful expenditure, &e., and we shall tiering) , he nearer the truth, if w, take halt the s•'tti, or 4 millions, as the measure of 111thvoithhle Pannerism. It this be correct, or if it approaches near to the ti nth, it is evident that a great saving migirt b 2 made in the annual rates, the acconip!is!finent of which, in a great measure, depends upon our selves. Let the °indent and the independent in each parish attend more to the vestries. Let people of respec'tability assonle the various parish offices, with a firm determination to attend to all the minotiat connected with their duty. Let the ,vnrkhouses in each parish be tinder the examina tion and controul of respectable Committees, so as, by enforcing work, to deter the idle from seek ing parish relief, and to diminish expence by creased earnings, classing the paupers and em ploying them agreeable to their powers. Above all, let every encouragement be given to the system of Cottaging, in preference to as sembling half a parish in a workhouse. Let a Bill be passed, enabling parishes to . raise Money for the building of cottages of various sizes, With gardens, piggeries, &c. on the verges of wastes and commons ; and let these cottages be occupied by military or naval pensioners. Let a clause be added, to the Bill, enabling the pen sioner to sell half ,his.pension to Gervernment, On a general plan of calculation, the sum paid fur which shall go to the parish in payment for the cottage. By this arrangement, the nation would to e nothing: for even should the purchase of the pension cost more than the sum saved, yet the improved industry, .and saving in poor's- rates,, would be more- than a counterbalance. let all the boats now rotting in the dock-yards, or such part_ of them as can be spared, be sent to the dif f erent out-ports, in proportion to the size of each, to be tinder the care of the Collectors of Customs, and lent to such seamen as may wish to employ themselves in fishing. If old canvas amid twine, with Oars, &c. are sent with them, the expence will be nothing in the account of old stores. I have been particularly led to these observations by the recent : Report of the Mendieity Society in Red Liou-square, founded upon the most rational principles, and wider the most exalted patronage Report which, added to the very apparent clearance of the streets from mendicants, cannot tail to convince every thinking person of the propriety of extending support tosuch 2 very useful institution. In tact, it deserves a Charter; and if a Bill were to pass, granting it Sixpence in the Pound upon the Poor's Rates of the Metropolis, its effects would speedily be more apparent; for if• beggars were obce removed from the public streets, pauperism, being less openly exposed, would soon become more disgraceful in the eyes of •the lower classes, and the expellees of the, Poor's Rates would naturally - diminish. At pre sent, it is highly important that 'every person should aid its endeavours by purchasing tickets for the supply of such beggars as Appear in the streets. It isditflcult to pass a poor object, or a poor looking object, without affording some relief, and it is easier to give a halfpvany than togive a ticket which would cost 2d ; but the expellees of one week in casual-charities would purchase two •or three dozen of the Society's tickets, and save the purchaser from all further expence in that way; for if every one were to offer tickets to beggars instead of money, the real objects would meet with speedy and permanent relief, whilst impos tors would leave off a calling at present too lucra tive. If a street beggar gets one halfpenny each from 200 passengers in It crowded tivoroughfare, Iris day's receipt is Ss. 4,1. with which he can often retire at an early hour to enjoy himself in idleness and luxury, whilst the poor industrious mechanic labours hard for one guinea per week! This evil ought to be stopped ; and can alone be done on the principles of the Mcodicity So ciety, as the most humane twiy reconcile to their own consciences the refusal of pecuniary relief, when they can offer a ticket instead that will operate always as it. relief to a poor or a touchstone for the idle. IGNOTUS. *,* ‘Ve subjoin the following account of the Institution alluded to, which we fed much plea sure in tindtng is supported by some of the most distinguished characters in the country, at the head of whom is his Royal Highness the Duke of YORK as PATRON : " The plan of this Institution is the issue of printed tickets for distribution to Street Beggars, which tickets refer them to the Society's house, where they are immediately supplied with food, and a statement of the case •of each registered.-- The truth of this statement is afterwards ascer. tained by Personal Investigation and Enquiry, and the case is then disposed of according to cir cutrst [loco. " The Board •of Management have reason to believe that the Society has already done much good.—They have had the heartfelt satisfaction of rescuing many really deserving objects from► wretchedness and misery, whilst at the same time they have exposed and brought to justice a con siderable number of daring impostors, who infest ed and disgraced the streets of the Metropolis, and who were living in habits of drunkenness and riot with the stuns daily bestowed upon them front a mistaken humanity. They again entreat the public t , ► assist their endeavours by purchasing and (Its... tributing their tickets, and discontinuing altoge ther the present impolitic practice of indiscrimare almsgiving. If this ohjeci were once attained, the s; Indy beggar would be compelled to work, as the most artful impositire could he of no the employmemt of children in begging (one great C [lse ut juvenile crime) would he terwinated,—the indecent exposures in - our !while street• would dis appear,—the most revolting features of the pre. siAtt system would gradually recede,—iNiendicity would eventually cease,—and lie wretchedness, indolence, and vice of numerous class of our fellow-creatures might in the course of time give place to habits of iudustry and virtue."._ v +~ A ti ~.~
